We updated the MediaWiki roadmap in Berlin: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_roadmap The tl;dr version: * 1.17 - May (we still might make it...we're very, very close) * 1.18 - July, with tarball release in August * 1.19 - October, with tarball release in November * 1.20 - January 2012, with tarball release in February That's a very rough outline, and I put confidence numbers in there (e.g. 30% for 1.18) to emphasize that these are pretty rough projections. As stated above: 1.17 is very, very close to being complete, and the 1.18 review queue is starting to look much better. Compare: 1.18: http://toolserver.org/~robla/crstats/crstats.118all.html 1.17: http://toolserver.org/~robla/crstats/crstats.117all.html As you can see, there's still a lot of review to do for a 1.18 release, but it's not as out of control as 1.17 was. A 1.18 deployment in July is plausible, though comparing the graphs and mapping them to our actual 1.17 deployment, we're probably looking at August.
